I just realized that I never mentioned what I had in terms of pets, which I think is a thread rule.
One pet.
A dog.
A shortie Jack Russell (Parson Russell). Often they are called English or Irish Jack Russells.
Or what the Amercian Kennel Club calls them - Russell Terriers.
Currently they fall under the Foundation Stock Service (miscellaneous class) of the AKC and are not yet an official "breed".
Pretty much they are the Jack Russells that you know and love and are of the shorter variety.
My guy is five years old and he is perfect.
